Fabulous Find

We had the most relaxing time on our 3 night stay. Lovely welcome and a very comfortable room ( with a balcony over looking the river). Definitely worth booking the breakfast - more than value for money. Ate there each evening too, came home feeling a tad full!

Lovely place, super staff

Really enjoyable stay, staff were very friendly and helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. Outside setting was lovely despite the grey weather, would probably be awesome on a sunny afternoon/evening. Ate in the restaurant and the food was very good and portion sizes huge. Great selection of drinks in the bar. Stayed in a double room with river view on the top floor. Room was very clean, bathroom and shower were great and the bed was super comfy, had a great nights sleep. Overall very enjoyable stay, would happily go back.

The food was excellent but the restaurant and bar closed at 4pm as it was a Sunday. There was no mention of early closing on the website. The room was very very hot, there was no aircon. We were woken in the morning early to what sounded like the roar of jet engines.

Ok but

The pub-Hotel was ok, just a little disappointed with cleanliness, soaps looked liked they was there from previous guests, really should be wrapped for next guest to use. Coffee machine uncleaned still had pods in from previous guests, just little things that can be improved.As it is a pub can be a little noisy until customers leave so be aware if you have early starts next day
